Foreword: This week we have compiled the Bekuwa breeding records of the genus Big Spade and Spade, so that the larger genera are only saws and deep mountaines.
The breeding records of the spade genus have changed less, and only the Titius shovel has a new breeding record in 2018: 73.2mm, and the latest records of some other large spades are basically stuck around 2015, while the feeding records of curved shovels and giant shovels are still stuck in 2002, and no new breakthroughs have been made in 18 years.
The overall situation of the genus is better, almost every year there are varieties to break new breeding records, this time it is the original subspecies of the spade (from Samar) and the Sumatra giant spade that have produced new records, the former reaching 105.7 mm and the latter reaching 107.9 mm. In addition, "Dorcus lachnosternus" has no clear Chinese colloquial name.

Bekuwa's 2018 Annual Spade Breeding Record
Note 1: The Taiwan spade was originally a dorcus grandis formosanus subspecies, and the Chinese Spade 2 adjusts it to the Chinese spade Taiwan subspecies.
Note 2: The old Latin name of the Perry Spade is "parryi", and the Japanese name is directly transliterated as "パリー", which is pronounced as the Perry harmonic sound as we know it. After the name of the Perry spade was adjusted to "ritsemae", the old common name was still used in Japan.
Note 3: There are no subspecies in the domestic classification of Hyperion spade.
Note 4: The Taiwan subspecies of the hairy horn shovel was originally a Taiwan subspecies of the strip-backed shovel, and there were originally 5 subspecies of the strip-backed spade, and after adjustment, only two subspecies, the Malay strip-backed spade and the Sumen-back spade, remained.
Note 5, the genus flat spade has been independently formed in China, the genus name: Serrognathus, we still use the old "Dorcus" genus name in the breeding table.
Note 6: Indian spade is the largest species in the genus Aspas, originally attributed to the genus Dolcus, and the domestic independent genus "Aulacostethus".
postscript:
Careful insect lovers may find that there is no Shovel Armor native to Japan in the existing feeding records, because the Bekuwa Breeding Record Sheet puts its native species together separately, and we put this piece of content at the end. This issue of tweets should be the last issue before our Spring Festival, and the next goodbye will be after the Spring Festival.
Finally, here is the next preview, the next issue of "Worm Character Language" We invited the technical emperor to do an interview, please look forward to it!
Happy Chinese New Year to all!
